Description

PQVWR queries the workstation state list and returns values for the following:

•Viewing transformation update state

•Requested and current view orientation matrices

•Requested and current view mapping matrices

•Requested and current view clipping limits in normalized projection coordinate points

•Requested and current xy-clipping indicators

•Requested and current back-clipping indicators

•Requested and current front-clipping indicators

If the application requests a viewing transformation change but Digital PHIGS does not provide it by the time the application calls this function, the viewing transformation update state is PPEND.
